How This Helps You

Using the Earnings Quality and Qualified Intermediary Self-Assessment means you can detect aggressive accounting practices before they escalate into restatements or regulatory penalties. You’ll gain immediate visibility into weak controls around revenue recognition, improper accruals, or non-qualifying intermediary designations that could invalidate tax positions. By systematically evaluating each of the 1,179 criteria, you reduce the risk of material misstatement, strengthen auditor confidence, and demonstrate proactive compliance with financial reporting standards. Organisations that fail to assess earnings quality rigorously face increased scrutiny from investors, credit rating agencies, and regulators, resulting in higher cost of capital, delayed transactions, or disallowed tax benefits. With this self-assessment, you future-proof your financial statements, protect your audit opinion, and ensure intermediaries in cross-border transactions meet legal and tax qualification thresholds. This isn’t just due diligence, it’s financial defence.

Who Is This For?

  • Chief Financial Officers (CFOs) who need to validate the reliability of earnings before quarterly reporting or M&A due diligence
  • Financial Controllers and Accounting Managers responsible for month-end close processes and SOX compliance
